WATERCOLOUR BIRDBATH

This charming little birdbath is the feature I have chose as my watercolour lesson for the "Welcome to My Garden" dvd. The actual birdbath has been rendered in watersoluble graphite shaded just like a normal graphite drawing and then disolved with a brush and water giving a wet on dry watercolour effect. This contrasts nicely with the softer background which has been built up woth layers of wet on wet applications. If this sounds a little too technical don't worry. I will explain everything in great detail on the dvd.
